Effect of fluvastatin on lipids and fibrinolysis in coronary artery disease

M Bevilacqua et al. Am J Cardiol. .

Abstract

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study shows that 20-week fluvastatin treatment induces beneficial changes in the lipid panel and a shift in the fibrinolytic pathway toward activation through a decrease in tissue plasminogen activator antigen. Fluvastatin treatment causes no variation in lipoprotein(a) circulating levels.
